The original name of the genre, muzyka chodnikowa (“sidewalk music”), that referred to cassettes sales from temporary stands on the sidewalks, was changed to the “nobler-sounding” disco polo as a reference to Italo-disco. The changing of the name was an inspiration from Sławomir Skręta, the owner of Blue Star, the first label established to record such music.[1]
